A Semi-Automated Technique for Internal Jugular Vein Segmentation in Ultrasound Images Using Active Contours [PDF]
The assessment of the blood volume is crucial for the management of many acute and chronic diseases. Recent studies have shown that circulating blood volume correlates with the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the internal jugular vein (IJV) estimated from ultrasound imagery.

BackgroundPostural changes are related to changes in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics. While sitting up leads to a decrease in cranial CSF pressure, it also causes shifts in the craniospinal CSF volume and compliance distribution.

Ultrasound guidance versus anatomical landmarks for internal jugular vein catheterization.
BACKGROUND Central venous catheters (CVCs) can help with diagnosis and treatment of the critically ill. The catheter may be placed in a large vein in the neck (internal jugular vein), upper chest (subclavian vein) or groin (femoral vein).

Rare External Jugular Vein Pseudoaneurysm [PDF]
External jugular vein pseudoaneurysm is a very rare cause of a neck mass due to the low pressure venous system. This case demonstrates a 27-year-old female who presented to the emergency department with a non-tender, compressible, left-sided neck mass ...

Noninvasive in vivo photoacoustic measurement of internal jugular venous oxygenation in humans [PDF]
In many clinical conditions, such as head trauma, stroke, and low cardiac output states, the brain is at risk for hypoxic-ischemic injury. The metabolic rate and oxygen consumption of the brain are reflected in internal jugular venous oxygen saturation (sijvO2). The current gold standard for monitoring brain oxygenation is invasive; it requires jugular

Thrombosis of the internal jugular vein [PDF]
A 35-year-old woman presented to our Emergency Department with a gradual-onset occipital headache radiating into her neck, and worsening over the prior 6 days. She reported inability to move her neck due to pain and stiffness. She denied trauma, fevers, or other positive findings on review of systems.
